+Team CoyChev Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 FYI, Here's a copy of an e-mail I recieved, after asking the status of the Compass Rose coin's distribution: Hi Gary, The compass rose coins were shipped to us today and we will get them out starting on Monday. Sorry for the delay, we had to wait on our numbers from Groundspeak. Thank you, Tess Weed www.CoinsAndPins.com Aaron Charles Promotions Quote Link to comment
+Eric K Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Just as an update for those that ordered through USA Geocoins. Please remember that once Coins and Pins get them then they have to ship them to us so please allow time for that. Once we get them please allow us at least a few weeks to get all of the orders packed and shipped. We have quite a number of orders to go through. Thank you Quote Link to comment
+team simpson Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 great! what name will they have on geocaching.com? compass rose coin? or just usa coin? (since they are working together) Quote Link to comment
+Eric K Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 great! what name will they have on geocaching.com? compass rose coin? or just usa coin? (since they are working together) While we are working together the coins are not USA geocoins so I am guessing they will have a seperate icon. I don't know if it is the generic icon or not.

+AtlantaGal Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 They won't ship out on Monday... holiday, Columbus Day = NO MAIL Quote Link to comment
+CoinsAndPins Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 The Compass Rose Geocoin will have a specific icon. It will initially show up as a generic icon until Groundspeak gets the graphic uploaded. Quote Link to comment
SlytherinAlex Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 The Compass Rose Geocoin will have a specific icon. It will initially show up as a generic icon until Groundspeak gets the graphic uploaded. Which could take some time. I'm still waiting for them to update the EU icon on the site. Alex.

+ShowStop Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I just got this e-mail today: Dear ShowStop, This ship notification is being sent to you by the U.S. Postal Service® at the request of COINSANDPINS.COM. A package with a Click-N-Ship® label created on usps.com containing the following information is scheduled to be shipped on 10/11/2005. My coins are on the way! Quote Link to comment

+CoinsAndPins Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Just to let everyone know who has placed orders for the 2005 Compass Rose geocoin through CoinsAndPins.com, we had problems with our mailing cost calculator and recently corrected the problem. It is now calcualting the shipping cost correctly. We will lower what was charged on everybodys order to reflect the correct shipping+handeling cost for priority. The coins should arrive to everyone by this Thursday, and we hope you enjoy them. I also hope that some of them will make it into some caches since I would like to find one too and pass it along . We did not get any extra for ourselves. Our 2006 coin will be available in January along with another kind of coin. Quote Link to comment

Hard to be patient when everyone else is saying "mine arrived today!" We started shipping today. Just dropped off another batch a few minutes ago. I would say we are about halfway through the orders. The International orders may take a little longer. For some reason the line at the post office today was literally out the door. The people that have already got their coins were the folks that ordered directly through Coins and Pins. Edited October 18, 2005 by Eric K Quote Link to comment
+mcl143 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I ordered a compass rose geocoin and a regular geocoin from USA Geocoins last Friday and was never given an e-mail confirming shipment. I have the PayPal receipt, but that's it. Is anyone else having problems contacting USA geocoins regarding orders? Quote Link to comment

If you just ordered Friday please allow time for your order to be processed, entered and shipped. As referenced by the message above we started shipping the pre-sale Compass Rose geocoins Monday. We are about halfway through packing, posting, and shipping those orders. Please allow adequate time for delivery. Quote Link to comment
